For your 26x7-1/2 inch enclosed trailer, based on your photo you will want two units. If you simply want to replace the unit, I recommend the Advent Air RV Air Conditioner w/ Ceiling Vent and Start Capacitor - White # ACM135C. This will give you the roof top unit, the vent assembly with built in thermostat, and a start capacitor to make sure you can start the unit even when the shore power is at an amperage that isn't strong enough for most systems to start.

The capacitor helps with that initial start that draws far more power and then recharges itself so you can be sure you can use it again for the next start up.

If you are traveling in colder weather, you may be interested in the Advent Air RV Air Conditioner with Ceiling Vent, Start Capacitor, and Heat Strip - White # ACM135CH. This heat strip won't heat your trailer like a furnace would, but will take a slight chill out of the air for more comfort on a cold morning or night.

Both of these units use the 14-1/4 inch square opening that is standard for the trailer air conditioners, so it will be an easy swap.
